Best Cheesy Hasselback Chicken Recipes

CHEESY HASSELBACK CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Make 8 crosswise cuts along each chicken breast, slicing two-thirds of the way through (be careful not to cut all the way through; see Cook's Note). Transfer the breasts to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and pour the Italian Herb & Garlic Dressing over them.
• Fill the first slit on each breast with 1 half-moon slice of fresh tomato and a couple pieces of sun-dried tomato. Fill the next slit with 1 piece of cheese. Fill the remaining slits on each breast, alternating between the tomatoes and cheese.
• Bake until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve warm with a green salad.
